What a load of hooey. Who would they have sued if the kid broke his neck sliding into second? Should they sue the league?

I have five children. I cannot fathom the grief of one of them dying. I cannot fathom blaming the bat company, either. They sell bats that help you hit the ball harder and farther.

I cut myself pretty bad a few years ago making a ham sandwich. I did not sue the knife company. They sold me what I wanted: a very sharp knife.

There was a case several years back when a bat company was sued for some serious injuries in Slow Pitch softball. ASA had tested the bats and ok'd them but, the manufacturer was selling a hotter bat than the one tested. The bat company in that case did something wrong. In this case, the bat company did not do anything wrong.

Excuse me , I never said they did. My statement was based upon the findings of the court. Your beef should be with them.

I thought it was a jury judgment.

In Montana, I believe, if the judge feels the jury went against the preponderance of the evidence, he may set aside their verdict. This judge did not.

Do those moronic Montanans elect the judges?

We all know that the injustice system in this country operates the way it does for a rea$on. It's just a necessary evil that you try to avoid being involved with.
